It’s been a while and I feel like I should post something (mainly just to get stuff out of my system).
It’s been a stessful month, with exams and personal stuff to complete, and the end isn’t in sight (except for Linear Systems & Signals lab, which ended on Thursday (very excited about that)). I really hate how Professors get behind schedule on work/lectures, then pile it on at the end. They probably do realize that every other instructor is doing that and just want to be dicks about it. It’ll all end in four weeks, which is too far and too much work away.
Pretty much the only other noteworthy event was the ACM Programming Contest Regional thing last Sunday (with free t-shirt and slap braclets), which really wasn’t that noteworthy. I need to program more. (Sidenote: the slap braclets where from an company called AdaCore, which program things like air traffic controls systems in Ada (they work with GNAT). Makes we want to learn Ada and get a horrible government job.)
It’s one o’clock in the morning, and I don’t feel like sleeping, so more randomness. The DEC Storage Expansion unit I got for my VAXstation works for the most part. I got the correct SCSI cable and terminator, and powered it up. The VAX can find both disks in the unit, but only recognizes one of them. I have this feeling that it might be bad, which is probably is the least that could have happend to a 15 year old piece of hardware. Anyway, I’m going to see if I can find a disk to put inside of the VAXstation so I can get more disk space. I should be getting a CD-ROM drive in the mail any day now.
